Yes, Lawnold had to have a good talk with Shang Jiuge at this time. After all, the weak-looking girl in front of him killed five entire boats and a total of thirty elite soldiers in an instant.
"Girl, I'm too scared, I'm too scared." Lawnold said repeatedly.
"Why are you so afraid?" Shang Jiuge asked.
The river below the two people was surging.
"Those are the Seventeen Bandits of the Yellow River." Lawnold said with a cry.
Shang Jiuge could only sigh. She had never sighed so many times since she came down the mountain.
"If I told you that I just cleared out the camp of the Seventeen Bandits of the Yellow River yesterday, and the words "Seventeen Bandits of the Yellow River" will never appear on the Yellow River again, would you believe it?"
"Believe it, of course I believe it..." Lawnold said subconsciously, but then he was stunned: "What did you say, girl?"
"I said that I had just wiped out the Seventeen Bandits of the Yellow River, and came out with the treasures and women they robbed, and planned to hand them over to the government." Shang Jiuge said quietly.
Lawnold was stunned.
He instinctively didn't want to believe what Shang Jiuge said, but the fact that Shang Jiuge easily defeated all the officers and soldiers he brought forced him to believe these things.
"Girl." Lawnold really cried this time.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"If you had told me earlier, so many of my brothers would not have died, and we wouldn't have had to get into this situation."
Shang Jiuge smiled and looked at Lawnold: "The question is, will you listen to what I said earlier?"
"Or do you believe it?"
Lawnold was silent.
Yes, they had no intention of listening to Shang Jiuge. In other words, when they found out that only a weak and inexperienced woman like Shang Jiuge came out of the ship, they never listened to Shang Jiuge. Song sees it.
"Girl, you shouldn't have killed them." Lawnold said.
"I didn't kill them in the first place." Shang Jiuge said matter-of-factly.
"What?" Lawnold couldn't believe it.
"You just said clearly..."
"I just said clearly that I killed them." Shang Jiuge said quietly: "But if I didn't say that, how could you be obedient?"
"They were just knocked unconscious by me."
Lawnold was overjoyed. Now he was truly convinced of Shang Jiuge. He immediately knelt down on the boat and kowtowed to Shang Jiuge a few times: "Thank you girl for not killing. Thank you girl for not killing."
"Then, how come you are monitoring and deploying on the bank of the Yellow River in the middle of the night?" Shang Jiuge looked at Lawnold. At this time, Lawnold already admired Shang Jiuge extremely and was sincerely convinced, so basically He would answer everything Shang Jiuge asked.
"Report girl, this is what happened."
"We received reports from some merchants yesterday. They said that someone on their ship was robbing property and forcibly collecting tolls."
"Originally, if this thing was done by the Seventeen Bandits of the Yellow River, we would have just turned a blind eye."
"But they said that the person who did this was a tyrannical female bandit, and they gave the county boss some money, and asked us to be careful up and down the Yellow River. After all, one Seventeen Yellow River Bandit is enough to bear, and another woman comes Jiangyang thieves, then the two sides of the Yellow River will be turned upside down."
Due to the dim light at this time, Lawnold did not notice the subtle changes in Shang Jiuge's expression.
"Then what's next?" Shang Jiuge asked.
"So we have strengthened the patrols on both sides of the Yellow River. But don't tell me, just by chance, we saw you driving the boat of the Seventeenth Bandits of the Yellow River down the river. In the final analysis, this was just a misunderstanding." Lawnold said.
"This is not a misunderstanding." Shang Jiuge shook his head and said, "Every effect in the world has its cause."
"I was the one on the boat who asked them to hand over their fare."
Lawnold was really shocked now: "What?"
"At that time, three of the seventeen Yellow River bandits boarded the boat to extort their passage fee. I couldn't stand it, so I beat the three robbers away. But they didn't appreciate it, so I took advantage of the situation and collected their passage fee." Shang Jiuge said quietly, not hiding anything.
"You..." Lawnold didn't know how to evaluate Shang Jiuge's behavior: "Isn't this robbery?"
"Maybe?" Shang Jiuge shook his head and said, "Anyway, I confiscated not one tael of silver, but threw it all into the Yellow River. By the way, I got off the boat and went to look for the Seventeenth Bandits of the Yellow River."
"Then you killed the Seventeen Yellow River Bandits by yourself?" Lawnold asked.
"Absolutely." Shang Jiuge thought for a while and said. After all, the reason why Fang Bie and Xue Ling came was later told to Shang Jiuge. Although they came to the same destination by different routes, Fang Bie was a somewhat shady member of the hive: " Those silver dollars will be considered as my selling expenses."
"It's less than one hundred taels in exchange for three to five years of peace on both sides of the Yellow River. I think it's worth it."
Listening to Shang Jiuge's words, Lawnold wanted to tell her that this was not how the accounts were settled, but even Lawnold felt that Shang Jiuge was right to settle the accounts this way.
"Okay, I roughly understand the whole story, but I don't know what the girl plans to do now." Lawnold asked.
"I have a Yellow Arowana from the Seventeenth Bandits of the Yellow River tied to my boat." After Shang Jiuge said this, Lawnold took two steps back in fright. Shang Jiuge continued to say calmly: "He has already broken his hand tendons and hamstrings. , and my martial arts was disabled, and now I am no longer as good as an ordinary person."
Lawnold breathed a long sigh of relief: "The leader of the thief is extremely cunning and has great martial arts skills. You must not take it lightly."
"I have seen his cunning." Shang Jiuge said quietly: "Now I plan to send him to the government for processing. At the same time, I have about twenty young women on board and two large boxes of gold and silver treasures. It is the stolen money and stolen goods that the Seventeen Yellow River Robbers have used to harm the Yellow River over the years. I hope it will be handed over to the government for proper handling."
After Shang Jiuge said this, Lawnold was silent for a long time.
"Girl, you are truly an upright and upright hero."
"However, regarding this matter, I, Lawnold, have a merciless request. I wonder if you can listen to me."
"Eh?" Shang Jiuge looked at Lawnold: "What's the unkind invitation? Please tell me and listen."
"You should get off the ship now and fly away. I will publicize your great achievements in private. At the same time, I will try my best to ensure that the women on your ship will be sent to a safe and suitable place."
"Of course, as for other things, I'm a young man like Lawnold, so I can't control that much."
Shang Jiuge frowned quietly: "Why do you say that?"
Lawnold raised his head and looked at Shang Jiuge: "If the Seventeen Bandits of the Yellow River are as you said, they have been destroyed, and the thieves' heads, treasures, and women are all on this boat."
"Then this is a huge achievement. If you report it to the court, you will get a lot of rewards."
"No one is going to give you that credit."
